Please don't try to paint the Packers as a team with a tough schedule. How many bad teams have they beaten at home? And what happened when they went on the road two consecutive weeks against good teams (Denver, Carolina)? That's right, they lost. Now they'll beat the crap out of the Lions this week and all their sycophants in the media will have them back in the Super Bowl again. It's a long season and nobody knows what will happen. But the Packers have a very suspect defense and that is their biggest issue.

I was in many of their classes. Were you? And I am not Don Adam and I am not making $@#& up as I go. I think the true source of your discontent is something you are not sharing with us.

I can tell you that the Kweits (Mary and Robert) didn't do that. They would debate us in class if we disagreed with one of their statements.

I never felt like anybody was pushing their opinions down my throat when I was at student. At least that is how the College of Business and Public Administration worked. And even outside of that school, I never had a problem with "brainwashing".

Because lumping people into one category is not a good idea. And this is from somebody who doesn't like how the Legislature does things. And yes, I didn't like the lobbying for Big Oil, but I think Ed will do a great job as interim President of UND.

And yet, both men are considered American heroes today. So let's please keep this in perspective.

And if it's the former, it might be time for a new A.D.

So the people pushing hard for "UND/North Dakota" and "Nodaks" weren't shoving them down our throats?

Wait for the "Climax-Fisher Rule" to be invoked in 3.....2.....1

Oh, you mean this?

Well, he used to work for the government, he hasn't held political office for awhile. And that is a very ignorant statement. Judge the individual on his or her merits.

You just had to go there, didn't you? Seriously, I don't care about what Wrigley does in his personal life or anyone else for that matter.

Generally, interim positions are about keeping the train on the tracks and not making big changes or launching big initiatives.

But have you forgotten? Men's hockey wouldn't suffer all that much if we go back on the sanctions list, so it's "a small price to pay" to go back on it if it means getting the Fighting Sioux name and logo back. After all, none of the other programs matter anyway, right? (sarcasm)

ROFLMAO!!!!

That would be an excellent choice. Even if he doesn't have 5 previous years of Division I experience.

I think they knew what you meant to begin with, but just couldn't resist the temptation to be a smart-mouth about it. I think Jones is basically working to earn another contract extension. Otherwise, it's good-bye Grand Forks for him.

Thank God for common sense. I am of the opposite political party of Schafer, but he's a good guy and a pretty moderate politician who focuses on solutions and not merely sticking it to the other side.

Was Ralph Engelstad ever appointed President of UND? Or the leader of the UND Alumni Association? No.

They are both not preferable. They are both unacceptable.

If you suck at your job of teaching, sure. If you happen to have a different political persuasion than the ruling political machine, no. Look up the history of the founding of the SBoHE and you'll get what I am saying. It involved Bill Langer firing NDSU professors for political reasons.

No, but at least they aren't giving jobs to the highest bidder. Which is what you suggested.

How about making him the new President? Sorry, this isn't a monarchy.

Who has said their opinions should count more? Not me. Everyone gets one vote and that is how it should be. The eligible voting pool is one thing they haven't screwed up during this whole charade.
